Both are good reasons to block it. Overriding the homepage the way it does it means "not displaying the wizard anymore", effectively "breaking" the installer... and that's why I blocked it. What we really need is a way to whitelist allowed extensions... but as far as I know we can't do that with firefox :/ Dealing with extensions mangling the HTML code is still an ongoing task... and I'm effraid there's no solution to deal with them short of trying to auto-generate the extension blacklisting file or starting FF in safe-mode.
